So look, we just witnessed something pretty remarkable, one of the biggest scandals in American history, the biggest presidential scandal I think we've ever seen. We wanted to talk to you about the media's role in all of this, how much they played a part in keeping information that was so key for the American people to know.

away from the American people, is there any way that the legacy media can claim that they simply didn't know that they were doing their jobs and that this was all really the Biden administration's fault? Or is this the media's fault as well?

Yeah, I wanted to ask you specifically about that element. CNN's Jake Tapper, he's co-written this bombshell book, Original Sin. It's revealing a lot of this information that at least the top levels, we in conservative media were reporting all along. But we have, to be fair, learned some new things from this book.

Tapper said, for example, that Democrats were strangely willing to talk to him right after the election when it didn't matter anymore. He's getting a lot of plaudits for his bombshell book. Do you think he deserves that? Is this an act of courageous journalism? What are we witnessing here?

As you said, we haven't seen a mea culpa admission to the actual original sin of the media at this point. Do you see any hope for them turning around their credibility in the near future with the American people? Or do you think the media is really dead and buried at this point?

Well, the good news for us in the new media is that the door is wide open for us to reach more and more people. So I guess we appreciate it to the legacy media. Batia, thank you so much for joining us.
